To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a subwoofer (5.1 channel). You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD software recorded sound in the Surround EX format if you connect additional one surround back speaker (6.1 channel) or two surround back speakers (7.1 channel). You can enjoy vertical sound effects if you connect additional two front high speakers (7.1 channel) in PLIIz mode (page 52).

22 Notes Be sure to turn on the receiver when the video and audio signals of a playback component are being output to a TV via the receiver. Unless the power is turned on, neither video nor audio signals will be transmitted. Connect image display components such as a TV monitor or a projector to the HDMI TV or MONITOR jack on the receiver. You may not be able to record, even if you connect recording components. Depending on the status of the connection between the TV and the antenna (aerial), the image on the TV screen may be distorted. In this case, place the antenna (aerial) farther away from the receiver. When connecting optical digital cords, insert the plugs straight in until they click into place. Do not bend or tie optical digital cords. Tips All the digital audio jacks are compatible with 32 khz, 44.1 khz, 48 khz, and 96 khz sampling frequencies. The receiver has a video conversion function.

26 Notes on connecting cables Use a High Speed HDMI cable. If you use a Standard HDMI cable, 1080p or Deep Colour (Deep Color) images may not be displayed properly. Sony recommends that you use an HDMI authorized cable or Sony HDMI cable. We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable. When you connect an HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D component, the sound and/or the image may not be output. Connect other audio cords or digital connecting cords, then set A. ASSIGN in menu (page 69) when the sound is not output correctly. Notes on HDMI connections An audio signal input to the HDMI jack is output from the SPEAKERS jacks, HDMI TV jack and PHONES jack. It is not output from any other audio jacks. Video signals input to the HDMI jack can only be output from the HDMI TV jack. The video input signals cannot be output from the jacks or MONITOR jacks. When you want to listen to the sound from the TV speaker, set to TV+AMP in the HDMI menu (page 84). If you cannot play back multi channel software, set to AMP. However, the sound will not output from the TV speaker. DSD signals of Super Audio CD are not input and output. The multi/stereo area audio signals of a Super Audio CD are not output. Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length, etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack may be suppressed by the connected component. Check the setup of the connected component if the image is poor or the sound does not come out of a component connected via the HDMI cable. Sound may be interrupted when the sampling frequency, the number of channels or audio output signals from the playback component is switched. When the connected component is not compatible with copyright protection technology (HDCP), the image and/or the sound from the HDMI TV jack may be distorted or may not be output. In this case, check the specification of the connected component. Be sure to turn on the receiver when video and audio signals of a playback component are being output to a TV through this receiver. If you set PASS THRU to OFF, video and audio signals will not be transmitted when the power is turned off. Set the image resolution of the player to more than 720p/1080i to enjoy High Bitrate Audio (DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby TrueHD). The image resolution of player may need certain settings be made before you can enjoy multi channel Linear PCM. Refer to the operating instructions of the player. Not every HDMI component supports all functions that are defined by the specified HDMI version. For example, components that support HDMI, version 1.4, may not support Audio Return Channel (ARC).

31 Function for conversion of video signals The receiver is equipped with a function for converting video signals. Video signals and component video signals can be output as HDMI video signals (HDMI TV jack only). PUT jack HDMI PUT jack HDMI TV Connections COMPONENT COMPONENT MONITOR MONITOR : Same type of signal as that of the input signal is output. : Video signals are upconverted and output. As the initial setting, video signals input from the connected component are output as shown in the table above. We recommend you set the video conversion function to match the resolution of the monitor you are using. For details, see RESOLUTION (page 83). Notes on converting video signals When video signals from a VCR, etc., are converted on this receiver and then output to your TV, depending on the status of the video signal output, the image on the TV screen may appear distorted horizontally or no image may be output. When you play a VCR with an image improvement circuit, such as TBC, the images may be distorted or may not be output. In this case, set the image improvement circuit function to off. Converted HDMI image output do not support x.v.colour (x.v.color) and Deep Colour (Deep Color). The resolution of signals that can be converted by the receiver is 480i only. Refer to the operating instructions of each connected component for details on video output setting. HDMI video signals cannot be converted to component video signals and video signals. The converted video signals are not output from the MONITOR and COMPONENT MONITOR jack. The resolution of the signals output to the HDMI TV jack are converted up to 1080p. To connect a recording component When recording, connect the recording component to the jacks of the receiver. Connect cords for input and output signals to the same type of jack, as jacks do not have an up-conversion function. Note Signals output from the HDMI TV or MONITOR jacks may not be recorded properly. 31 GB
